Return a UNIX timestamp from your Javascript function:

Math.round(new Date().getTime() / 1000) //returns number of seconds since epoch

Then simply use that in PHPs date function:

$yourJsTime = $_GET['jsTime']; //depends on how you pass your js timestamp
date_default_timezone_set('UTC');
echo date('YmdHis', $yourJsTime);
